Describe the bug

The official LoRA training tutorial/examples documentation instructs users to install diffusers from git, which installs the dev version. However, the requirements.txt files in the examples folders (examples/text_to_image/requirements.txt) specify outdated dependency versions like peft==0.7.0.

This creates an immediate import error because dev diffusers requires peft>=0.17.0, while the requirements.txt installs peft==0.7.0.

And further errors down the line even if peft is updated. (Error: TypeError: CLIPTextModel.init() got an unexpected keyword argument 'offload_state_dict' during running pipeline = StableDiffusionPipeline.from_pretrained("runwayml/stable-diffusion-v1-5", torch_dtype=torch.float16).to("cuda"))

Reproduction

# create new conda env
conda create -n lora python=3.10 -y
conda activate lora

# follow readme in examples/text_to_image

git clone https://github.com/huggingface/diffusers
cd diffusers
pip install .
pip install -r requirements.txt
accelerate config default


# Run the following in notebook
import torch
from diffusers import StableDiffusionPipeline

Even running diffusers-cli env throws error:
